Copilot Architect

Role & responsibilities

Key Responsibilities

• Own the solution architecture for Copilot agents built on Microsoft Copilot Studio, including patterns for hardening, governance, and platform standards.
• Guide and review the offshore engineers' agent builds; set technical direction and the quality bar.
• Front-end technical discussions with Matson leadership and technical teams; act as the trusted onsite point of continuity.
• Ensure the platform architecture is cloud-sound and integrates cleanly with the customer's environment.

Primary Skills

• Proven Copilot agent development on Copilot Studio, including topics, actions, connectors, and governance.
• Cloud architect background with, at minimum, Azure application architecture experience (AWS experience a strong plus).
• Strong customer-facing communication and the ability to work independently onsite.

Secondary Skills

• Power Platform governance environment strategy, DLP policies, RBAC, and Copilot Credits / consumption management.
• Integration and identity patterns: REST APIs, Azure AD / Entra ID, secure secrets handling (Key Vault).
• Responsible AI, security hardening, and solution-design documentation for executive and technical audiences.

Typical Interview Questions

1. Design a Copilot Studio agent architecture for an enterprise with strict governance — how do you handle environments, DLP, and least-privilege access?
2. How would you harden and productionize agents built by a customer's own team without slowing them down?
3. Compare an Azure-first and an AWS-first reference architecture for hosting the supporting services behind an AI agent.
4. As the onsite face of the pod, how do you build customer trust while steering an offshore engineering team?
